Ok ok ok ok sooo... with these new laws what the fuck is going to happen when my grandpa passes and I inherit his guns? "DID HE SELL YOU THESE FIREARMS? MORE THAN TWO??? WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO CONFISCATE THESE BOY."?

Better question
What's a good, inexpensive bolt-action or semi .223 or similar caliber rifle? Looking for a little learning rifle that isn't a 10/22 because
>finding 22lr
Not looking for an AR platform either
>>28438606
>Grandpa loses guns in a tragic boating accident
>You buy a gun safe
>Gun safe magically gets filled with Grandpa's old funs
>>28438748
You should get an AR.
>>28438753
I will chew your balls off
>>28438606
My understanding is that it only applied to online sales.
Would be funny if they came out and said " you get two online guns per lifetime unless you get an FFL"
>>28438748
Why a bolt action for a small caliber like .223? If you do go that route though, I would recommend getting something chambered in 5.56, as it will also shoot .223 - but not the other way around.
>>28438748
>semi .223
ever considered an AR?
>>28438763
Well do you have any suggestions then?
I'm worried 5.56 will kick a bit too hard and may give me a flinch habit. Bolt action so I don't have to worry about whether my ammo pressure will chamber a semi-automatic, especially if I'm firing .223 through a 5.56.
>>28438606
Inherited guns don't qualify as being "engaged in the business of selling firearms". So...literally nothing happens. You get his guns.

Savage Axis in .223
Seriously like $300
God tier quality.
I don't get on /k/ for 4 days and they're already passing a new gun law? What exactly does it entail?
>>28438782
Seriously, consider getting an AR in 5.56. The recoil is almost nonexistent, and there's an insane amount of aftermarket parts if you want to customize it. There's a reason why AR platforms are so popular.
>>28438800
Is that... A long-action .223?
>>28438782
>I'm worried 5.56 will kick a bit too hard
Oh you're a troll. OK, got it.

This looks alright, I wasn't aware Savage made the Axis in .223, will look into this. $300 is what I'd end up paying for most 10/22s once you factor in gas to find anmo and ammo price anyways

I mean I'm probably gonna inherit 2.7 quadrillion dolarrydoos from my great aunt, so I can't complain too hard, but whatever
Picked up a new Lee Enfield and am in the process of disassembling it for cleaning.
Two questions: seeing as it's winter and I can't do the garbage bagging and setting it in the sun so I'm planning on going with mineral spirits, and the stock has cleaned up nicely.
The question I've got is the Enfield has those black painted metal parts, if I use mineral spirits on the cosmo, won't I end up taking off the paint too?
Second question is how important is to remove the the handguards and buttstock to remove cosmo underneath? I've read stories of people cracking the stocks trying to remove them from the gun and I'd like to avoid that if possible. It's not like the cosmo is going to hurt the gun when I shoot it right?
>>28438606
are you buying a bunch of guns from your grandpa and reselling them for profit?
no?
then literally nothing changed.
and even if you WERE doing that, literally nothing changed because if you're selling guns for profit you need a FFL.
nothing

AR-15 in my area for $700. It's in 5.45x39 and comes with 6 mags and 180 rounds. Also has a Trijicon TX30 but that bumps the price up to $1200.
The AR is Spikes Tactical with a Adams Arms upper for what that matters.
My question is /k/, is this a good deal? Should I spring for the optic also? He is willing to accept trades but the only thing I am willing to trade is a norinco SKS.
Yes I am in America.

>bolt action so I don't have to worry about whether my ammo pressure will chamber a semi-automatic, especially if I'm firing .223 through a 5.56
.... You realize you want 5.56 so so you can shoot 223 or 556 right?...
>>28439144
No4 Mk 2
I've watched a number of videos on how to disassemble the things so in theory I know how to, I'm just weighing the benefits of cleaning out the handguards and stock versus the possibility of cracking said stock taking it apart.
>>28439174
Oh, shouldn't have any worries. IIRC there is less chance of cracking or breaking stuff than with a No I Mk III* like what I have.
Do be careful when removing the buttstock. If you don't do it right then yes, you will break your buttstock.
>>28439138
Do it. Pay cash unless you have a second SKS. Optic is not my area of expertise so I will leave that to someone else to answer.
>>28439174
Do it right faggit. Wing it and go slowly, but get all of the cosmoline.
Also, mineral spirits can remove most paints so its probably best to try a different method. Have you thought about baking the steel parts?
>>28439206
Well I doubt he'll trade the whole thing for a SKS but he might knock a few hundred off.
I only have one SKS.
I know, pay cash only. Basically what I do anyway.
Thank you /k/.
>>28438782
Just get an AR you dumb, pathetic cunt. Now fuck off.
>>28439191
>>28439251
I'll guess I'll give it a shot then. I just hope I don't fuck it up.
After more research the Enfield coating is suncorite and is supposed to laugh at most solvents so I should be fine using mineral spirits on it without removing the black.
Thanks.

Be careful of newly made Marlins, Remington owns them and they caught Rems' Quality Control AIDS
>>28438848
If you want a muzzle device on a SKS you'll need to get the barrel threaded to AK device standards. I advise going to a gunsmith to have this done, since my real advice would be to not do it in the first place but if you are going to anyway at least don't bubba it up.

I've heard all kinds of problems with Remshit Marlins, there's an anon with a failure-to-feed on his Marlin in another thread somewhere for example
Someone has a Plainfield M1 Carbine for 800 near me, it comes with
>6 15 round mags
>1 30 round mag
>4 mag pouches
>270 rounds of ammo
I have no idea when it was made though, the SN starts with Y, so it was 62-65.
Is it a good deal?
Can all ARs shoot 5.56 or are some of them restricted to .223 only? Is there a manufacturer like Jennings I should avoid when looking at used or pre-built ARs?
>>28441464
A little steep to me. The gun itself is worth $400-500, ammo is worth like $120.
If I had $800 for a carbine, I'd just get a GI personally.
>>28441527
Alright, I was gonna trade my 20 Inch del ton/anderson AR for it, glad you cleared it up.

I don't know what to do
>>28442338
Make better friends, pick up a hobby if you have to if you want to meet new people or go volunteer at an animal shelter or a food bank or something.
If your mother can't handle it talk to any relatives that are close to you

Savage Axis is awesome, you can find them with decent scopes for a bundle deal around the $500 mark. A friend got one in .270 Win, and I've had an easy time tagging targets with it with the Nikon scope they bundled it with. Groups an inch easily provided you do your part.
Another option is the Mossberg MVP, which will take AR mags. I haven't spent any time behind this one, hopefully another anon can chime in with commentary on it.

I'm going to school now but I'm also unemployed using GI bill but i just feel broken as anything and am in constant conflict of identity and just feel so fucked up in every regard and i break down randomly now when i didn't before and have reoccurring thoughts of suicide and the only thing stopping me is my younger siblings and parents. i just dont know what the fuck to do and i feel so alone and misunderstood in all of this because everyone thinks im the funniest happiest guy in the world and expects me to be so at all times

Idk where youre located or how much you paid, but a wrapped enfield is worth double a regular enfield. Normally around 800 bucks. That value only goes up. You literally took off a minimum of 300 in value by doing that

>>28442666
I'm sorry to hear that anon. If your friends weren't there for you when you needed them to be, then they're assholes.
It's good that you're going to school, there's lots of people out there who you could engage with if you few alone and who have little expectations of who you might be. Maybe try some extracurricular activities, or try joining a study group or something similar?
You could also try hanging out with your siblings.
Hang in there anon.
>>28442729
Sorry to hear that. That rifle sat wrapped for years and years, untouched.
How much did you pay?

I think thats the first time ive rolled trips anyways my siblings are 6 and 7 so i cant really hang out with them haha oldest is 29 but we just have alot of bad history and shes a terrible person but i guess ill try more to connect with people through school etc but its just tough finding anyone with similar interests or any clubs or any relative clubs or groups
>>28443006
Psh, you can take your little siblings to go play at the park or go to the zoo or whatever it is little kids like to do nowadays.
I don't know what sort of school you're going to if there's some sort of student union building there's usually a whole rafter of various student clubs and activities, or at the very least there's bulletin board advertising the existence of these groups.
>>28442804
Way more than I should of but time's not really on my side, $1,300 after all transfer fees.
I'm trying to buy a gun online. Do I just go into my LGS and ask them to email a copy of their ffl to this guy?
>>28443433
Speak to your LGS first to see if they have any policies in place (for instance, if your LGS sells the gun you want in store they may end up charging you a higher transfer fee so it might not be cheaper for you to go third party)
But basically how it plays out for me it is
1) Buy gun online
2) Dude will send you his information
3) Pay dude
4) You take the information to your FFL and say you bought a gun from them, they'll send their info to your seller
5) Gun arrives at your LGS, they call you in to do paperwork
>>28438606
>>28443519
Ok so pay seller, go to ffl say I bought gun from x, can you send him your info so he can ship it here?
I've looked for a while and none of the stores around here have one. Its just a pre-b 75

YOU PAID 1300 FOR A FUCKING ENFIELD AND UNWRAPPED IT ARE YOU INSANE
>>28438958

That's pretty much it though I would suggest that you speak to your FFL first so you get all your questions and potential issues squared away before you send money anywhere.

I bought a laser bore sighter for my .308. When i put it in the chamber I tried to adjust it so the crosshairs sit ontop of the laser. When I was going horizontally, I reached the end of my turrets on my scope before It reached the laser. Am I doing it wrong?
>>28444631
Personally, I'd use a JHP for a cougar for the same reasons I'd use one on a person.
As for brown bears, bigger really is better. .44, .45/70, that sort of thing. Consensus seems to be handguns are pretty inadequate for a pissed off brown bear, so whatever you can carry.
>>28444708
Also, it says cal: .243 win does that still work with a .308? It fits fine, and the package says .308
>>28444729
Thanks for the ammo rec. I'm going to probably be doing a lot of hiking in mountain lion territory, and am getting a 45 anyways. There are very, very rare brown bear sighting, but they are always very scared of people.
Think it's ok to just carry the 45? If I moved somewhere with more bears I'd get a .41 or .44 mag. You don't like the 10mm for bears? It seems to be gaining popularity.
>>28444764
Honestly, I'd just pack the .45 for a mountain lion. If a full grown brown bear decides it wants to fuck you up, it's going to.
>>28444792
That's what I was thinking. I'll be in a group with a 10-pound dog who will scream at any wildlife that gets near, so I don't think bears will be a problem. Hungry, diseased mountain lions are a different story when walking with your pup.
Good rifle round for putting something deer-sized down at 500 or more yards? Looking for a reliable rifle hopefully under $1k that is chambered in it. I also know nothing about what scopes are good now.

yes
How do I become not shit at shooting? The holes never seem to end up where I'm aiming, and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
>>28446471
What are you shooting, rifles or pistols?
either way, you just need to be sure your stance is good, shoulders are forward, you are gripping the weapon consistently and correctly, you are using the sights right, and your trigger pull is consistent and smooth without pulling or compensating for recoil
>>28438853
+ 1 for the Axis, great learning gun.
>>28446516
Pistols mostly.
I took my friend on his first trip to the range a couple weeks ago, and he out shot me at pretty much every distance. Most of my shots ended up way lower than where I was aiming.
I'm not too sure about my stance, but I think my grip is consistent. As far as the sights, you're supposed to line up the front between the rears right? Would compensating for recoil be what causes low shots?
>>28442684
Oh, he wanted to change all kinds of shit. Legally, he couldn't do squat. Read the text of the EO.
>>28446562
Your stance should be braced, like you are about to throw a punch. Do a lot of dry fire practice to make sure your trigger pull is good- put a quarter on the end of the slide and dry fire with it balanced there.
It may pay to get a snap cap and load it into your mags at random next range trip. If you pull the trigger and anticipate recoil, but the gun doesn't fire, you'll notice yourself pushing the gun down.
Another thing to remember- always keep your arm and wrist straight. Aim from the shoulder.
>>28446562
If I have a weapon light that extends past the muzzle of my ar15 will it damage the light?
I realize it might foul with particles and such but I'm worried about a lens cracking or something.

Clue me in on 37mm Launchers, /k/.
Are they all shit? Are some as sturdy as an M203?
Are buckshot rounds doable? What weapons related purposes can they serve?
What do I need to know about making useful rounds? Does the ATF plan to eat my angus now?
>>28441519
Yes there are .223 ARs, look on the barrel for the caliber. Most ARs are fine. Avoid Radical Arms.
>>28438748
do you live in a commie state, fudd lifestyle, or do you legitimately not like AR?
>>28438853

>YOU FUGGIN IDYOT U SHUD WANT THING!
Who cares, if you don't know the answer stop shitting up the thread.
>>28448158
37mm owner here.
They are fun. I got one that's under my A1 clone and it's as close as I will get to owning a M203. The handguard was hotglued onto the barrel so I had to rip that shit off and JB welded it on.
As for using 12 gauge that's ass pounding territory, as well as the danger zone. There are 12 ga. flare adaptors but that's for the shorter, smaller USCG flares that don't do shit. They make a 26.5mm adaptor and it's quite useful since 37mm rounds are pricey.
As for useful rounds, if you're lucky you can find tear gas grenades, smoke grenades, and they sell kits for "bird bangers" which are small explosive rounds meant for taking out birds. I reckon if you "accidentally" drop some nails or ball bearings in the shell you'd have a usefull, improvised grenade but that's again entering ATF ass pounding territory.
>>28448691
I meant a 37mm shell full of buckshot, not a faggy adapter. I've heard of people doing it with flechettes.
Also, if you just register the laucher as a DD BEFORE you get the gud shells, it isn't illegal at all. And still FAAAAR cheaper than a m203 that you won't be able to reload for or get any ammo for.
I am also interested in a 37mm round full of the rubber pellets, a sort of LTL round. Could be useful in a HD situation since I would still have a rifle ready2go if they don't decide to fuck off after the LTL round.
I really don't especially want to kill anyone, even if they break into my home. I would to protect my life if that was the situation, but stopping the person, if possible, before that is preferable for me.
Again, a 37mm buckshot round sounds tits and you're a fag if you don't think so.
>>28448691
Is there any quality difference between lawnchairs?
>>28438748

If it's anything like the 308 axis the trigger won't be God tier. Can be fixed though and can't beat the price.

>>28449956

Dunno, dude said it came with 5.45 mags. I assume 5.45 would fit in a 5.56 mag. IIRC 7.62x39 does and 5.45 is the same case except necked down a bit more for the smaller projectile.
Nice part about it being an AR is that the snowflake caliber doesn't matter, I can always get a new upper.

I'd suggest getting a Yugo or Chinese. I'd prefer Chinese.
I figured with the recent uproar it's time to finally learn - can someone explain what exactly is this "gun show loophole that isn't actually a loophole but everybody says it is because it's scary" is?
I know it has something to do with FFL dealers and NICS checks, but not much past that.
>>28451544
It's a myth that at gunshows you don't have to fill out an FFL because of private sales, but 99% of gunshow sales do involve an FFL.
>>28451544
If you buy from a private party, like off Armslist, you don't need a background check.
It's less a loophole and more an intended feature of the original law
>>28451559
>Fill out an FFL
Eh... 4473?
>>28451588
So, technically, what the antifuns are worried about is someone buying tons of weapons legally and then selling them without background checks to random fucks on the internet, or?
>>28451618
>someone buying tons of weapons legally and then selling them without background checks
already illegal, if you want to sell a ton of guns like that you need an FFL, and therefore need to run background checks. They just hate the fact we're allowed to own guns at all, and are allowed to sell them as our property.
It's just another buzzword for anti-gun politicians and media to use.
is it a no-no to put a gun in battery outside the range?
>>28451802
Yes
Idiot
Gun should be unloaded and magazine removed until you're at the firing range, and at all times when the range is cold.
>>28451818
Shut up retard
You must be from commie land where your guns need to be unloaded and locked away and ammo stored in a separate place at all times
fuck off
>>28451802
Not necessarily but be careful. If you're just fucking around with your guns its probably not a good idea because thats how you get an ND.
If you're going to, make sure you clear it right after so you don't forget you left it chambered.
But obviously you have to chamber your weapon if its your carry gun or home defense weapon.
>>28440304
he shouldt do that, he should just pin that one on there and when he realizes how stupid it is he can just take it off.
So guns that are only legal for military and law enforcement...
Do you have to be issued these guns or if you are military or law enforcement are you allowed to buy them for personal use.
Maybe im retarded im not really sure.

NFA question:
I want to submit some stamps before 41p takes effect, the problem is I don't have money for all the NFA shit I want right now.
Can I just submit a few Form 1's with custom serial numbers for the kind of thing I'm trying to make, and engrave that later?
Ex; want to make a SBS, but no shotgun. Submit a Form 1 with serial number 12345. Buy shotgun months later with serial number 67890. Get Trust info + 12345 engraved on it.
Kosher?
Shot my SMLE & noticed these weird rings around the base of the ejected cases. Anything to worry about?
>>28453192
Military and civilians should be able to own the same weapons.
>>28454415
Thats case expansion, its really common in the SMLE because of the oversized headspacing (its intentional). Just make sure if you reload you resize the case diameter only and do not resize the case length because otherwise you will eventually get case head separation along those lines.
I know it's legal to make a gun in the US. My question is would converting a replica (say a revolver) to a real firearm be illegal? Now before anyone says that's stupid since a lot of them use pot metal and it would be dangerous. I'd be replacing a lot of the parts that wouldn't be sturdy and basically just using it so the finished product turns out nicer than a sloppy home made gun. I get that I could just buy one, but I'd be in it for a project.
>>28454693
If you can legally own the gun normally, you can legally make it.
Protip: if you're shooting anything but .22lr you're going to die.

Looking for a plate carrier that accepts the 14x11 XL Sapi plates.

Alright /k/, does anybody have any experience with prescription shooting glasses? I went out to the range and had a piece of brass make a nice, long scratch into my right lens of my glasses, so i think it's about time I invest in dedicated prescription eye pro. Any body got any recommendations?
Ok, so considering the steady march our nation's leaders have been taking toward inciting an armed revolution and the current trend of labeling most militia groups as terrorist organizations, where can a non-military serving /k/ommando learn the skills necessary to engage in the oldest and noblest of American traditions without having to enroll in an ATF/FBI honeypot?

Don't worry about "military" skills. Know how to shoot well enough to defend yourself, be able to tend crops in a small amount of land. Maybe distilling alcohol or something like that- if things get really bad it could be worth something.
The days of pitched battle on an open field between militia and King Henry's men are done. We'd be looking at a military coup or the like, much like the later days of the Roman Republic.

I've had a spikes st-15 for a while and put lots of steel shit and any kind of 5.56/.223 and it has not failed me although when I got it was unused and dry and I had like 3 spent shells that had to be pogod out so I lubed the fuck out of the bore the locking lugs and some of my ammo and 5000+ rounds later no issues I've had it for about 7 months now
Buddy of mine has a Spartan lower base by spikes with an American tactical upper that has also been very good to him
>>28455403
It would be half and half because of lot of military dudes agree with our founding principles and what not but a lot are zombies who would do anything if ordered so I feel like it would be ex-mil and civvies teaming up against what is left of the federal governments puppets
I've been after a Beretta CX4 9mm for a few months now. Finally found one on Armslist but there's an issue, it's in Florida and I'm in NC. The private seller is willing to ship to my FFL but obviously I have to send them money first.
Any way I can go forward without getting fucked or am I doomed to get scammed?
>>28456757
You should be fine but be careful
If you are really worried just got to gunshows around your state until you find one
Hope that helps

But what if I want to learn the more or less "military" skills like reloading, moving between cover, firing from cover, clearing rooms, etc?
>>28456746
Those coups weren't bloodless. Roman soldiers killing Roman soldiers since the days of Marius and Sulla.
Not to mention Sulla's ensuing use of civilians to kill his "enemies".
>>28456800
Watch videos and read books educate yourself or make friends at the range or wherever who have similar interests and I can't believe I'm saying it but you can do so paintball or airshit matches for that kind of stuff
>>28455334
No, they left a generous headspace so that it wouldn't get fouled by dirt or grime as easy. It still works, it just makes it harder to reload the ammunition.
>>28455334
Wait, kinda misread what you said. You aren't supposed to re-trim the brass to original length, when its been fired out of your rifle it is fine where its at, you just have to resize the diameter of the case opening. Like I said, don't resize the length otherwise it will get weak eventually and you'll separate the case when you go to chamber a new round.
http://www.public.asu.edu/~roblewis/SMLE/IIID2a11a4.html
>>28455334
Enfields have massive headspace because LOL GREAT WAR
Once you fire a round, your brass is now fireformed to your specific chamber. That means it's perfect for your rifle now.
You'll want to neck size only, until your brass won't chamber. Then do a full length resize, and go back to neck sizing. This maximizes the life of your .303 brass.
>>28458252
Headspace is not the term you are thinking of.
Headspace on the Enfield is bolt face to barrel face and is usually good.
Since rimmed rounds don't need anything but the rim to headspace on the brits used their usual practice of making loose chambers. Fast to machine and will handle any ammo reasonably well. Since military ammo isn't usually reloaded a loose fit in the chamber is no concern to them.
Do you concealed carry with a round chambered in a handgun that has no safety? From what I've seen here most people think round chambered is the only way to go. Are you nervous about a ND when you carry with one chambered?
>>28458739
Depends on what you mean by safety. Even glocks have a trigger safety.
I like my XDs in 9mm. Grip safety is an added layer of protection to make sure that I won't ND into my leg when holstering. Otherwise, as long as your holster covers the trigger you should be good to carry one in the chamber. This is general however, some guns it is still unsafe to carry one in the chamber without having the safety engaged.
>>28439138
Alright anons, I pulled the trigger and I'm going to buy it. Going later today (the 7th) to pay and pick it up.
>>28458739
Its practically impossible for your gun to go off while holstered. Don't have it out unless you need it to go off.
>>28444708
It means you did a really, really bad job mounting your scope.
The laser just shows you where the barrel is pointing, so unless you have a curved barrel you need to fix your optic mount, fuccboi

From what I understand if you are taking that kind of stuff, your doctor now has the right to report you to the NCIS.
I'm not sure whether this happens automatically based on medical records or if doctors have to report on a case by case incidence.
Having shit on your medical record that prevents you from owning a firearm would be complete bullshit though. Nobody knows whats on their medical record and any old doctor can scribble down some diagnosis based on his opinion. Hell I wonder if it still says I have ADHD back when that was a thing that existed.
>>28456800
If you want to learn how to do all that, you should go to Syria. Just use your kdr from Call of Duty to see where you're at.
Anyone have any recommendations for handguns for small weak women?

Seconding the axis
>>28460936
you might laugh at this but get her a 357 magnum. They can fire 38 special rounds. Firing 38 special out of a 357 feels like shooting a 22. Then when they get better, they can move up to the 357.
>>28460936
Bersa Thunder in .380, tubular reciever so she doesn't have to rack the slide. That or a .22 revolver but I wouldn't rely on one.
If a woman is too weak to handle a firearm and doesn't care to get herself into a state where she can, she's not mentally ready to use one either.

You know you can replace the uppers on them pretty easily right?
It looks like the only "good" gunrange in my area only allows paper targets. This will be my first time shooting, ever, and my assumption is that shooting paper targets is boring compared to shooting semi-reactive targets.
Am I right? Is paper boring? If it is, how do I make the experience less boring?
>>28461642
Two options
A) Calm your tits and just enjoy the fact you are shooting guns faggot.
B) Challenge yourself by trying to be as accurate as possible (note, you can do this with a buddy to compete against for more fun).
>>28461642
Shooting paper isn't boring. If its your first time shooting, it would be good to start out shooting at paper so you can help reign in your groupings and not where your shots are going.
So let me get this straight. If I just fire this from the hip it's still considered to be a pistol, but it turns into an sbr when I shoulder it?
What's the point of decockers?
>>28462586
Shouldering=sbr, yep.
>>28462799
They allow you to decock the gun without pulling the trigger.
>>28462586
Yes that is the idea.
>>28462799
makes the gun less cocked
>>28462799
In some designs, the only way to raise the gun condition (http://www.itstactical.com/warcom/firearms/colonel-jeff-cooper-carry-conditions-and-firearm-safety/) from one is to drop the mag and rack the slide. Decocker allows you to raise the gun condition without doing that.

>>28452431
>But obviously you have to chamber your weapon if its your carry gun
Been wondering about "Israeli carry", a.k.a. Condition 3 - why do they do that even though they're constantly under threat?
>>28455403
>Know how to shoot well enough to defend yourself
(intended to be an encouragement) the above implies "get in good financial standing", for to learn to shoot you need to shoot a lot, and ammo is expensive. I'd say the ballpark of the TCO to get proficient with a sidearm would be around $5k spent over a year.
I'd consider that a good investment.
>>28455710
Depends on the kind. I knew a guy that jumped off all medication because they were taking the edge off his character and were making him feel dull. He's edgy now all right, but at least not boring :)
